The radiation intensities are determined in the base region of the space shuttle due to solid particle radiation emanating from the solid rocket motors of the shuttle. Results of an analysis of the Titan 3 and simulated solid rocket motor radiation intensities are presented. The gas particle flow fields of the Titan 3 nozzle and plume and a space shuttle solid rocket motor nozzle and plume are described. The gaseous Titan 3 flow fields are discussed utilizing the results of flow fields generated by a gaseous and two phase method-of-characteristics computer programs. A two phase computer flow field analysis program was developed. An outflow correction theory is developed which will be used to modify existing convection heat transfer methods for better heat transfer predictions on bodies immersed in rocket exhaust plumes.
